Sanders said every state “should have a right to cast a vote as to who they want to see as president,” pointing specifically to California, which will proportionately award 546 delegates. He also said his campaign has a chance in West Virginia, Oregon and other states.
“We think we have a path towards victory. Admittedly, it is a narrow path, but when I started this campaign we were 60 points behind Secretary Clinton,” Sanders said. “Yesterday, here, in early May, we won in Indiana. … I think we’ve got some more good victories coming. So we are in this race until the very last vote is cast.”
“The path to victory is to do extremely well in the remaining states and as you indicate, California, of course, is the largest state and we hope to do well there … and win the state,” Sanders said.
He added that there is an “other path” as well: flipping superdelegates.
